GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop vs Radeon RX 6650 XT benchmarks

For gaming, the Radeon RX 6650 XT graphics card is better than the GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop in our tests.

The Radeon RX 6650 XT has a significantly higher core clock speed. This is the frequency at which the graphics core is running at. While not necessarily an indicator of overall performance, this metric can be useful when comparing two GPUs based on the same architecture. In addition, the Radeon RX 6650 XT also has a significantly higher boost clock speed. This is a frequency that can be reached if the GPU is cooled sufficiently and has enough power.

In addition, the GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop has a significantly lower TDP at 115 W when compared to the Radeon RX 6650 XT at 176 W. Heat output doesn't match power consumption directly but, it's a good estimate.

According to the results of the hardwareDB benchmark utility, the Radeon RX 6650 XT is faster than the GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop.
